I just received by upgrade from MPW2.0b1 to the real MPW 2.0.

The only problem is that APDA didn't send out the upgrade for
Pascal (the cover letter says it was included, but their customer
service people claim they didn't send it to anybody).

If I upgrade to MPW 2.0 can I continue to use Pascal 2.0B1, or do
I need to wait before I can upgrade at all?

By the way, for a Good laugh, read the new APDAlog.  It contains
an article about how they have changed their ways and won't list
ANYTHING in the catalog, unless they have it in stock, ready to ship.
It also contains a listing for MPW Pascal 2.0.
It also contains an article about how they shipped out MPW (including
Pascal) in the beginning of August.

Why does Apple limit distribution of their development products to
an imcompetent organization like APDA.  They use single sided disks for 800K
copies.  They don't seem to verify their copies, and ship disks with 
formatting errors?
